Big Picture Pedagogy: Finding Interdisciplinary Solutions to Common Learning Problems
This volume builds on existing pedagogical research and efforts to showcase SoTL across the disciplines (Gurung, Chick, & Haynie, 2009; Chick, Haynie, & Gurung, 2012) but takes this important work in a new direction. In each chapter, interdisciplinary teams of authors address a single pedagogical question bringing each of their home discipline's specific literature and methodologies to the table. The result is a fresh examination of evidence-based practices for teaching and learning in higher education that is intentionally inclusive of faculty from different disciplines.

Rape by the Numbers
Science plays a substantial, though under-acknowledged, role in shaping popular understandings of rape.

In addition to investigating how scientists come to know the scope, causes, and consequences of rape, this book delves into the politics of rape research. Scholars who study rape of...

Some Men
What does it mean for men to join with women as allies in preventing sexual assault and domestic violence? Based on life history interviews with men and women anti-violence activists aged 22 to 70, Some Men explores the strains and tensions of men's work as feminist allies. When feminist women began to mobilize against rape and domestic violence, setting up shelters and rape crisis centers, a few men asked what they could do to help.
